So, If You Think AI Is...

the latest science in breeding livestock…think again. Part three of the "So, If You Think..." series focuses on artificial intelligence (AI).

The Industrial Revolution elevated many people from physical work to knowledge work. As the next wave of technologies reshapes the workplace, a new era of work is emerging called: The Digital Age.

Whether you work in agriculture, business, healthcare, education, finance, or manufacturing, these emerging technologies will enable organizations to integrate the physical and “human” parts of their operations more intimately with this new digital world in ways that will transform how we work.

Artificial intelligence and robotics are examples of these new technologies. Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing. Artificial intelligence (“AI”) is an area of computer science that emphasizes the creation of intelligent machines that work and react like humans. Some of the activities computers with artificial intelligence are designed for include: visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages.

Robotics and artificial intelligence aren’t things we should be afraid of, rather technologies we should become familiar with and embrace. REDI believes that the more we learn about these technologies, the better we can prepare the workforce of the future. We found this article that shows how AI and Robotics changed the world of work at Pepsi Co. and “reprograms” us to re-think AI as something a business can’t do without.
